You can run the math test manually from your build directory:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:math elf/ld-linux.so.2 math/test-float --verbose=2
(test-{float,ifloat,double,idouble,ldouble,ildoubl} accept
--verbose={0..3}).

Most probably you might just need to change a delta - see the sources
in math/libm-tests.c and send patches.  If you consider this serious,
it's most probably a bug in your compiler (try gcc 2.95.1).  You've
got investigate this yourself, since I don't have access to such a
system and compiler.
